About this listen
“The Jewish Sherlock Holmes” investigates a deadly disruption on a college campus in this New York Times bestseller (The Detroit News).
Once again, Rabbi Small finds himself looking for solace outside the confines of the contentious world of his synagogue in Barnard’s Crossing, Massachusetts.
When a member of his congregation expresses that she does not want him to officiate her wedding, Rabbi Small has had enough. He seeks escape by dabbling in academia with a part-time teaching gig at a local college. But his fantasy of a tranquil life in an ivory tower is about to come tumbling down.
A bombing at the school kills one of the rabbi’s coworkers, and Small finds himself caught between adversarial students and feuding faculty members. As he investigates possible suspects with the same logic and measured caution that make him a brilliant religious leader, Rabbi Small finds that everyone
has a motive—and an alibi—and it’s up to him to uncover the truth.

A gentle, beautifully told story
I have both read and listened to this series three times, and still relish the characters, the stories within the story and although Catholic, love the intertwining the Talmudic analysis of the accompanying problems and the beautifully explained related religious elements. Beautifully narrated too.

Well narrated yet again.
Some more interesting information about Judaism in an interesting story despite outdated views in the context of when it was written.

The Talmudic detective
David Small sticks his neck out again... It's interesting to look back to the time I was a student myself, although clearly UK universities are very different and I now know why in the USA places of study for those 17-21 year olds are called "schools" - this one at least is more a sixth-form college than a beacon of higher education! The Rabbi solves another crime of classical design (no gruesome forensics, exceptional cruelty or sickening descriptions (thank the Lord), but he also learns about young people and teaching. He can be just a little bit dogmatic....

The more that I read of this series the more I love it.
This series is not only a fascinating detective series, with original and innovative plots, it is also an intriguing look at Judaism. For those people who know little or nothing about Judaism, this is a fascinating yet unobtrusive insight into what Jews believe (& more importantly, don't believe).
Don't read this if you are likely to be offended by religious references or belief systems that are not your own. Because if you aren't open minded to others beliefs, this is going to upset you - if though it is first and foremost a murder mystery series.
Enjoy.
